GoCar needs volunteers for GoVax campaign amidst intensified vaccination effort 01

Now that the government has ramped up the daily vaccination numbers, GoCar Malaysia is also looking to increase their efforts with their GoVax Heroes programme. The company is now recruiting volunteer drivers to assist with providing free transportation for senior citizens aged 60 years and above as well as persons with disabilities (PWDs).

Since the start of the programme, GoVax has thus far been using volunteers from GoCar Malaysia’s employee pool. Now that vaccination appointments have increased, GoCar found that the demand for the GoVax free shuttle service has increased as well.

Volunteer GoVax Heroes will be assigned a Saturday and Sunday schedule to avoid any clashes in their normal work and weekday routine.

GoCar will also be providing cars for these volunteers to utilise so there is no need to use their own cars. The company will also be covering the petrol and parking fees incurred.

There isn’t a time in memory that doesn’t involve staring at cars. After discovering the excitement of watching Schumacher vs Hakkinen, Formula 1 became a major part of life. The love for cars and F1 ultimately led to a job with CAR Magazine. The untimely death of the magazine meant a hiatus from cars at lifestyle women’s magazine Marie Claire before another opportunity came knocking again.
